About

Elena Bianca Basalic is a rising researcher at the forefront of neurorehabilitation, specializing in the integration of virtual reality (VR) and functional electrical stimulation (FES) for treating chronic neurological conditions. Her work focuses on developing innovative, technology-driven therapies to improve motor function and quality of life for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and post-stroke disabilities. In her highly cited 2024 review on VR applications for MS, Basalic systematically analyzed how immersive environments can address balance deficits and other debilitating symptoms, offering a promising alternative to conventional rehabilitation. Her companion 2024 systematic review on VR combined with FES for upper extremity recovery in stroke patients further underscores her expertise in multimodal interventions. Though early in her career, both papers have already garnered 6 citations each, signaling growing recognition for her contributions to evidence-based rehabilitation. Basalic’s research bridges the gap between cutting-edge technology and clinical practice, providing a roadmap for future studies that could transform patient outcomes. Her work is essential reading for students and clinicians seeking to understand the therapeutic potential of VR and neurostimulation in restoring function and independence.
